FPGA-Based Mini X-Ray Detector Front-End

Medical imaging systems require reliable front-end electronics that can acquire sensor data, process image information, identify errors, and communicate results to other parts of the system. In applications such as X-ray imaging, CT, PET, ultrasound, and other diagnostic imaging systems, the electronics must often handle large amounts of data while maintaining predictable timing and low-latency operation. Because of these requirements, FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) are commonly useful for medical imaging and signal-processing applications. In this project, the medical imaging concept is simplified into a small FPGA-based frontend demonstration.
